Whatever because you are not a big fan of them or because you are used to core acts (sans Foo Fighters and the indie veterans) underperforming on Alternative?

A mix of both. Didn't expect it to go all that far anyways.

I still think the max this could go is top 30 (ala Seether, Chevelle, Linkin Park). Bullet loss may be partly attributed to the release of the new twenty one pilots and Mumford & Sons singles as a lot of songs had reduced bullets. Brandon Flowers' new single also just lost its bullet.

I don't think anybody is expecting this to go that far on alternative at all so I'm honestly not expecting any (unironic) WTFs this time around.

Yeah,I think its a given that alternative radio has dropped heavy rock from their playlists. The more important questions are if and how many weeks this will be at #1 in Mainstream Rock tracks

Honestly, I think the only play it got on Alternative was from Active leaning stations that decided to debut it as it was new. I didn't expect it do much on there as they're completely an Active band now with the charts different than they were six years ago.

I don't think it's only the Active-leaning Alts that are playing this. My station seems to be playing it fairly regularly, and I wouldn't consider them Active-leaning at all. Even for Alternative, I think there was quite a bit of hype for a new single from Breaking Benjamin. I too don't expect it to go very high, but I'd think it'll do better than where it's at right now. Perhaps it's just a bump in the road due to the new singles as Daryl the Beryl said.

I was actually surprised it even charted on Alt. "Give me A Sign" was there last Top 10. ..and that one just scrapped the top 10, but honestly; the two Alt stations I listen to; KROQ and 91x, never even played it more than a couple times. Anyway to me, they are hard rock and that's where their songs will perform justly.

Surprising to me that ZBB was dethroned this quickly, but I knew that this would have the best chance to do so, and I like the song, so I'm not complaining.

Don't see anything that could challenge this besides "Human Race" and maybe "Little Monster". I can see this staying at the top for at least a month.

The album has finally leaked. I'm 5 songs in and Breaking The Silence has those classic Burnley low screams in there.

This is the one that took the hardest hit from "Uma Thurman"s return to the top 30. I'm just wondering if any of you actually heard this song on your Alternative Rock stations?

I hope Close To Heaven is the 2nd single (even though they just stole the melody of Who Wants To Live Forever for the chorus)

Couldn't they have come up with a more imaginative video than just a live performance?

On January 9, this single was certified Gold by the RIAA. It just goes to show you that there's still demand for hard rock music out there.
